MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always return the trigger and lock
lever and disconnect the hose before attempting
to perform inspection or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol
or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Maintenance of nailer
Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose
screws before operation. Tighten as required.
With tool disconnected, make daily inspection to assure
free movement of the lock lever and trigger. Do not use
tool if the trigger or lock lever sticks or binds.
When the tool is not to be used for an extended period
of time, lubricate the tool using pneumatic tool oil and
store the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to direct
sunlight and/or humid or hot environment.
Maintenance of compressor, air set
and air hose
After operation, always drain the compressor tank and
the air filter. If moisture is allowed to enter the tool, it may
result in poor performance and possible tool failure.

Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic
oil in the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient
lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly.
► 1. Oiler 2. Pneumatic oil
Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over
140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or
alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which
it may become dangerously caught on during operation.
Hoses must also be directed away from sharp edges
and areas which may lead to damage or abrasion to
the hose.
Nails
Handle nail strips and their box carefully. If the nail
strips have been handled roughly, they may be out of
shape, causing poor nail feed.
Avoid storing nails in a very humid or hot place or place
exposed to direct sunlight.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should
be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service
Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
